”Länsförsäkringar is strengthening its position as Sweden’s fifth largest mortgage institution and has Sweden’s most satisfied retail mortgage customers for the seventh consecutive year. It shows that the strategy with local presence and proximity to customers, who ultimately are the owners, is successful. We provide retail mortgage lending in the most simple and personal way as possible to make the process clear and secure for customers. Loans are increasing according to plan and have maintained high credit quality.
